Liverpool boss Rodgers slams 'unacceptable' Suarez diving comments

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has slammed Luis Suarez's "unacceptable" diving comments and says the club will deal with the matter internally.

The striker admitted that he had "invented a foul" against Stoke with the scores level at 1-1 in a game the team went on to lose 3-1, but added that the media makes things up about him to sell papers.

However, Rodgers has deemed these comments inappropriate, stating that the diving is not in line with the club's ethics, and that Suarez has apologized.

"[Diving] is not something we advocate. Our ethics are correct," he told reporters. "There's no doubt Luis is topical and probably will continue to be. He's knocked on my door a few times and apologized."
